Augh, crud at Daniel Spisak on Technology

Well, the AC adapter on my 12″ Powerbook finally gave up the ghost. I knew it had a frayed wire or a loose connection somewhere but its now offically dead-dead so I have to go find myself a new one. Sigh. New AC adapters cost….hmmm $79 new from Apple or $55 used off of Ebay. Not sure I want to spend money on a used AC adapter. The adapter has a design flaw in one of it’s wires, the wire should be thicker and there should be a molded strain relief where the wire meets the AC adapter. Crap and this had to happen right after I made one of my huge debt payments so I am next to flat broke till the next check. Perhaps I can borrow something in the meantime, who knows.

Daniel Spisak was born from the fiery depths of fusion and now roams the pale blue dot known as Earth. I obtained my bachelors degree in Computer Science from UC Irvine at the end of 2007.

I am also involved in technology & security consulting firms as well as being a freelance technology writer. I also contribute to Jerry Pournelle's website and Chaos Manor Reviews.

This blog is one of the main locations where I do my writing, which is then automatically sent to my LiveJournal, VOX, and MySpace accounts. I can also be found on a variety of social networking and microblogging sites like Pownce, Twitter, Brightkite, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
